Got my first challenge done, play a quiz with 20Q and score 50%, with no problems. Also have Nemesis today, with none other than...you Terry! I expect I'll be winning that one as you hardly ever score...will have to wait until tomorrow, though, to see if that works correctly.

Hmm, I've encountered something I didn't see when we were testing - two challenges (medium and difficult), both of which require me to take a list of quizzes. I think 32 is rather a lot. Any chance it could be coded so that players don't get two challenges of this sort?

Hmm there are actually a lot of combinations of those floppy since lots of challenges involve quiz playing.... I can make sure these two dont show up together again, but I don't really want to have to isolate all of them. I think in general, on those days when it offers too much quiz playing, choose one or the other!

The heavens won't melt down if you don't complete challenges. This will hopefully be around for a long, long, long time.

Your chances of winning "Ten in a Day" wouldn't be affected by using the swap function, only if you spend credits. Still, it's not like anyone is going to be winning "Ten in a Day" anytime soon.

Actually, your swap could mean the difference between getting "Ten in a Day" and not getting it. If you have two incomplete challenges, at any point, that you can't finish (possibly due to failing to get a good enough score in a Daily game...), swapping one out would give you the opportunity to try a different challenge to complete. You can only buy challenges if you have fewer than two incomplete challenges. It's worth saving, except the next two/three weeks, where it doesn't matter. It will take at least 21 days (6 credits a day) to save up enough credits to go for the mini-badge in any case, though, so it doesn't matter right now anyway.

My dificult challenge today was to complete the crossword Generally General V without using easy mode. I played that crossword last week, but I went ahead and did it again. At the end it said that I had already completed that puzzle and did not give me credit for completing the challenge.

Terry, unfortunately I don't remember the exact name. It was on the opening minutes of the brief public beta, one of the first few users to get his. (Didn't write down the U numbers in that frantic start and it got closed too early to find him again)
